Ms. Valerie Frizzle

Although I am dressing up this year, for the first time in many years, I'm dressing up as Liz from Magic School Bus, the dinosaur.

And then my lovely red-haired girlfriend, Miranda, she's dressing up as Miss Frizzle.

She's got a little school bus, a funky dress.

She's going to make her hair curly.

I get this is completely unprofessional, but who fucking cares? Thank you for your patronage.

Austin Abrams plays Miss Frizzle from the magical school bus without students and no educational narration.

But being serious, Abrams plays Jay, a son that goes out on the ocean to seek out his father's remains that we see from the first scene, who gets sucked into a sperm whale's mouth.

And after walking out of whale fall, this is a movie that doesn't need some Ms. Frizzle shrinking magic because the movie proves how big the world can be and how we can underestimate the force of nature that surrounds us.

And there's a lot more messaging that gets jam-packed and just silenced underneath the ocean that I'll get into in just a second.

Now, I'm not saying that anybody will get swallowed by a sperm whale or like watching Jaws and not everybody will be eaten by a shark, and the movie doesn't want to prove that either.

I want to, let's say, invest in a film project, walk through that, too.

So I like to say I'm like a fun Miss Frizzle over here.

Oh my God,

Ms. Frizzle, what a vibe.

Okay, so where did you grow up? So I grew up in Connecticut in this little town called Cheshire.

And I was saying to you earlier, like before we started recording, it's like this Ferris Bueller suburb.
